Cottage on Estate with Private Lake-new pics in Fishkill

Charming, delightful, restful, refreshing--all comments that describe
the stone and cedar-sided cottage on a 100 acre estate. Completely
private with great views looking across a beautiful mowed meadow, this
cottage is perfect to relax, and unwind. Your own drive winds
alongside the lake--always a great view! It is a short flat walk (200
yards) to the 5 acre lake, where you can swim, fish, or enjoy a boat
ride. We loan floating chairs for a gentle float around the lake. A
paddleboat or rowboat are also available for your use. There are
trails through the woods, and mountain hikes, or benches around the
lake for a relaxing time with a great book.
The country cottage is two story, but both floors are ground level!
There is easy access to enjoy the outdoors through sliding doors on
either level. Level 1 has a full kitchen with table for 2 for coffee
or menu planning, a dining area for 6, and the living room. Large
windows in the living room give you a constant view of the stream just
across the gravel driveway. The second level is accessed by an open
staircase and has a bedroom on either end of the cottage with a shared
hall bathroom. There is an sitting alcove just inside the upstairs
sliding door leading out to a 12' x 27' covered porch. Mornings and
evenings are a terrific time to be on the porch, and enjoy the 10 acre
open meadow before you.
